I wonder how many manufacturers of aircraft in the Great War are still trading under the same name today?
Here are a few that I found:
AEG - AEG.com - although it has gone through some bewildering changes and is now part of Electrolux, the AEG brand still exists You may have an AEG fridge, a far cry from the twin engined AEG G.IV bomber...
Fokker - fokkerservices.com - perhaps the longest-lived aircraft manufacturer, Fokker was still producing aircraft until the 90s, when it went bust. The small successor company produces parts and offers aerospace services.
Siemens - siemens.com - the company that produced the Siemens Schuckert D.III / D.IV fighters has survived two world wars and has been through some changes, but it still exists, known today for its electrical products.
Can you find any others?
